International UP warranty
Warranty conditions:
The international UP warranty covers
material- and workmanship faults and is
valid for 24 months from the delivery date.
The UP warranty covers the cost of
materials and workmanship on gliders
accepted by UP to fall under the warranty.
The UP warranty does not cover damage
caused by accidents, or by changes made
to the glider. Likewise, parts that are
damaged due to normal wear and tear are
exempt from warranty coverage. Fabric
colour changes that do not influence the
behaviour or safety of the wing are not
covered by the warranty, and neither are
faults caused by the exposure to solvents
or salt water, or plain incorrect handling of
the wing.
For any warranty claim to be accepted
the following conditions must be
adhered to:
•
The paraglider was used under
normal circumstances and was
maintained according to the
instructions given by UP International.
Note that these include instruction for
the correct packing, storing and
cleaning,
•
The paraglider was only used in
accordance with its DHV certification,
•
A complete logbook showing all
flights, with duration and location,
must be presented upon request,
•
Only original UP spares have been
used, and only UP, or a UP affiliate
service centre, has performed
repairs or service jobs on the
paraglider,
•
A complete, correct registration
card has been filled in and sent to
UP within 14 days of the purchase.
Note that you may also register
your paraglider with UP via the UP
homepage,

UP reserves the right to refuse any
claims not honouring one or several of
these conditions. However, in some
cases an “ex gratia” settlement may be
offered.
Checking the UP
Trango X-light²
According to German and Austrian
aeronautical legislation (§ 14 Abs. 5
LuftGerP) the owner of a glider can
check the airworthiness themself, or
authorise a third person (for example
manufacturer/importer) to do this.
To perform your own airworthiness
check, UP International must give you
a briefing. This briefing could be done
after an agreement with UP
International and is only valid for the
UP Trango X-light². The owner gets
the so-called "Nachprüfanweisung"
after completing a successful check at
UP International.
Should the owner decide to check the
wing by themself, or employ a 3
rd
party
to do so they must make sure that
UP’s guidelines are adhered to. Failing
to do so will void the certification.
DHV and UP International highly
recommend that you let the
manufacturer/importer or a DHV
